A simplified LCA is conducted based on the methodology of simplified LCAs according to SETAC (Europe). The case study is about the recovery of automotive battery housings. As a result of the simplified LCA, the current situation of material recycling is preferred to the past situation of landfilling. However, energy recovery could be an option, too. | | Keywords: automotive; plastics; recovery; recycling; screening; streamlining |
